Drew's POV
*next day*
I've already decided. I'm going to manage our company here. I haven't yet discussed this to Ynna. I know she'll understand.
I'm here at my dad's office. Good thing he trained me about this things.
"Sir, on the way na po yung imi-meet ninyong client." my secretary said.
Ugh, guess who my client is.. It's Yanna Salvador.
After a while, my door opened. It was her.
"We meet again Mr. Fernandez" she said while wearing a playful smile
"Psh" I said
"I have a proposal for you. It will help you and your family. Pati na rin ang kumpanya niyo." she said.
"Continue" I said then she continued.
Ynna's POV
Haay, busy daw si sungit ngayon. Si Loraine naman kasama si Bryan. Sabi ko na nga ba eh may nililihim yung mga yun xD Si Sabrina naman, she's with Kevin, and I'm glad that their relationship is okay now. Mukha ngang tinamaan na si Kevin dun eh haha. Yung ibang boys, gumimik. Haay.
No choice... Kailangan ko ng maghanap ng trabaho. Haha, syempre pampadagdag sa ipon ko.

Nandito ako sa tapat ng videoke bar. "videoke" bar ha? May inuman. Pero no strippers, kantahan lang hahe
Nabasa ko kasi sa may wall nila na kailangan daw nila ng singer/waitress. Base dun sa nabasa ko. May oras ang pagiging singer sa pagiging waitress. 8pm to 10pm yung kantahan then 10:30pm to 12 midnight eh yung pagiging waitress na dahil yun yung time ng mga inuman
Pumasok na ako.
"Good Afternoon po." sabi ko dun sa lalaki, mukhang teenager lang sya. Sya ata yung may-ari nito
"You may sit down" he said then umupo na ako sa tapat nya.
"I'm Ynna Salvador po" sabi ko. Tinignan nya lang ako then nagsalita na
"So, what makes you think of working here?" he asked me
"I badly need money sir. I know na anak ako ng mga Salvador pero sir. May nangyare lang po kasi.. Basta long story, clumsy kasi ako eh." sabi ko
He looked at me from head to toe. Then nagsalita sya ulit
"And why would I hire you? I know rich people like you Ms. Ynna. How can you handle a work like this?" tanong nya
"Sir, hindi po purkit anak mayaman ako eh hindi ko na kaya. I've been through a lot of stage performances and I think I can do this. At ang pagiging waitress, I think I'll have to adjust to that but I am confident that I can do it." I confidently said
"Great! You're hired!" he said then smiled.
Ohmygosh! I'm hired already! Hindi ko ine-expect to! Hala, hindi ako masyadong seryoso sa sinabi kong kaya kong maging waitress! Pero bahala na! Basta may trabaho na ako! Yess!
"Thank you sir!" I said with a big smile on my face. Tumawa sya
"By the way, wag mo na akong I-sir. You can call me Matt. Matt Anderson. Since magka-age lang naman yata tayo. Matt na lang" sabi nya then he smiled. Ngayon ko lang napansin. Ang gwapo pala nya pag nakangiti! Haha
"You'll start your work tomorrow. Your salary is 250 a day. I hope that's fine with you. Ganyan na talaga ang--" I cut him off
"Okay lang po!" sabi ko. Then ngumiti ako.
"Kakaiba ka ah!" sabi nya habang tumatawang mahina then ginulo nya yung buhok ko at lumabas na.
Lumabas na rin ako. Gabi na rin kasi. Magko-commute pa ako.
Naka ilang minuto na akong naghihintay ng taxi, pero maygad! Wala pa rin, lahat may sakay. tinignan ko orasan ko.. it's already 7pm. Haay patay ako nito. Double dead imust say, andun si ate eh.
"Hey!" nagulat ako ng may nagsalita sa likuran ko
"Oh Matt!" sabi ko, sya pala yun.
"Need a ride home?" tanong nya
"Uhh.. Wag na. Maghihintay na lang ako. Sige po!" sabi ko then kumaway.
"It's okay. Ihahatid lang naman kita. At isa pa, it's getting late already. Delikao na" he said.
Hindi na ako tumanggi pa at sumakay na sa passenger's seat. Tama sya, gabi na at delikado na sa kalye, malayo pa naman ito sa bahay.
"Sa *toot* subdivision po ako, yung pinakamalaki dun. White gate" sabi ko
"Ynna, treat me as your friend. Masyado naman atang formal yang po na yan." sabi nya
"Uhh, okay!" sabi ko.
After that, we stayed in silence.
**
Naramdaman kong may tumapik sa pisngi ko. Hindi ko namalayan na nakatukog na pala ako sa biyahe. Pagmulat ko ng mata ko, si Matt nasa harap ko. Nandito na pala kami sa tapat ng bahay namin. Nakababa na ako. We said goodbyes to each other then kinuha nya number ko,. Required daw eh.
Bago ako pumasok, may nakita akong lalaking nakasandal sa may gate namin. He looks mad. Patay...
